God speaks to us. ²Shall we not speak to Him? ³He is not distant. ⁴He makes no attempt to hide from us. ⁵We try to hide from Him, and suffer from deception. ⁶He remains entirely accessible.
God loves His Son. ²Request Him now to give the means by which this world will disappear, and vision first will come, with knowledge but an instant later. ³For in grace you see a light that covers all the world in love, and watch fear disappear from every face as hearts rise up and claim the light as theirs. ⁴What now remains that Heaven be delayed an instant longer? ⁵What is still undone when your forgiveness rests on everything?
³We acknowledge our mistakes, but He to Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by giving us the means to lay them down, and rise to Him in gratitude and love. (A Course in Miracles, W-168.1:1-6;4;5:3. See also ACIM Lesson 168 Insights.)
We seem to live in a dream dark with fear. Fear casts its shadow throughout our experience. It stems from the guilt that comes with believing we have denied God and fear His retribution for our denial of His Love. We are unaware of all these emotions that lie beneath the surface of our awareness. But they are behind all the perceived need to protect ourselves and search for Love and acceptance.
There is a Light that will dispel the dark shadows of fear. It is the Light of Love given us in our Creation to be forever ours. We have been given a Guide in the dream to help us see past the shadows of fear. We can welcome this Guide by pausing to go within to the peace of God that is there waiting for us to be open to it.
The Light of Love surrounds us and protects us so that nothing we dream can change the fact that Love created us like Itself. In peace we welcome Love’s vision which shows us Its Presence everywhere. In gratitude we welcome this vision which shows us the way to our Home in Heaven.
